Answer:

                    Assets     =  Liabilities  +                Equity

Purchase:        cash                            Treasury Stock   Addiotnal Paid-in TS

                     (2,200)                                (2,200)

Sale of Treasury Stock

                       1,680                                   1,440               240

Explanation:

Purchase of Treasury Stock:

the purchase will decrease both, assets as we are using cash

And equity, as the outstanding shares decrease.

The transaction is reported at cost: 200 shares x $ 12 each = 2,400

Sale of treasury stock:

As the price is different we will recognize an additional paid-in for the difference:

cash proceeds:             120 x 14 = 1,680

treasury stock at cost: 120 x 12 = 1,440

additional paid-in                            240
